Blank Slate is the greatest thief of his generation, ready to pull off the heist of a lifetime. But you have to get up pretty early in the morning to get one past the pony who defines when ‘early in the morning’ is…

Twilight, a filly firmly rooted in the Enlightenment, is assigned to read Frankenstein. One reading session later, she is determined to show the world what a great stallion young Frankenstein really was.

After accidentally learning that each Princess has their very own secret rooms to retreat inside whenever they wish, Twilight Sparkle makes it her mission to uncover just what could be inside Princess Celestia's.

Starswirl the Bearded is not used to dealing with fans, not surprising since he never had one before. But when a certain purple unicorn of the distant future discovers time traveling, Starswirl soon finds his comfortable days coming to an abrupt end.

Archmage Twilight Sparkle barely sleeps between her duties, her research, and raising Spike. Now she also has to deal with an evil goddess’s return. It would have been nice if Celestia had mentioned this a year ago…

Twilight Sparkle failed her entrance exams for Celestia’s school. Worse, she is a danger to both herself and others, resulting in her magic being suppressed. Dreams crushed and now one of the weakest unicorns, a nightmare comes to her.

Twilight looked over to her dear mentor, Princess Celestia, and found she had once again fallen asleep mid-lesson. Her intense debate on awakening the princess was cut short when the decision was taken out of her hooves.

“Huh? Oh. Twilight, I am so sorry for falling asleep again. I think we need to reschedule this for tomorrow morning.”

Twilight nodded. After all, Princess Celestia was obviously overworked. If only there was something she could do to help.

4781673"Twilight, you know what Equestria needs?" Celestia asked as she magically stripped off her golden regalia and placed them accordingly on Twilight. She topped it off with her crown before saying, "A coup. I'll be back in a month or so."

"Should I be benevolent this time around, princess?" Twilight said.

"As long as the sun's shining at the beach," Celestia said as she dawned a pair of sunglasses, sunhat, and then popped a martini into existence, "I don't care." And with that, she teleported away, leaving Twilight alone.

47816254781834I agree. Very enjoyable short story. Filly Twilight works very well with Celestia in these kind of stories.Adding to all this, wouldn't it be funny if Luna came in dressed up like Nightmare Moon and staged a coup just like Twilight did? Nothing as serious as the real Nightmare Moon, just Celestia and Luna having a laugh and Luna mocking herself as she pretends to be Queen Nightmare Moon holding court.

“In fact, new law,” Twilight growled. “The princess is allowed to have as much caffeine and sugary treats as she wants during open court and it will be considered the very height of manners in Equestria.”

And so occurred the single greatest outbreak of Chaos prior to Discord's escape.

4783948Depends on your definition of filly, I suppose. I intended her to come off as thirteen or so - young, but not too young. Basically the point where she has been around Celestia and the castle staff long enough that this is adorable rather than treasonous, but also young enough that Spike, the voice of reason when Twilight goes off the deep end, is not in the picture.

Celestia making Twilight sit on the throne for a day feels a little over the top.

Dawwww, I just picture a little Tyrant Twilight screaming at the nobles with Celestia lounging in the gardens with a glass of wine and a cigarette dangling from her grinning mouth, just not giving a shit.
